The 33 1/3 book series is cool. Colin Meloy wrote a book about the Replacements classic LET IT BE. He really doesn’t mention the record much….at least not in the first 20 pages or so. Which is nuts, since the book is only 106 pages long. If I wanted to read about a sensitive artist type who doesn’t write about rock music I’d read some James Joyce.
Colin Meloy, you tricked us. Again.
i’ve been digging this new record. insurgent pop songs and a healthy dose of stoner rock.
I’ve been trying to keep the coffeesick blog up to date, and that’s been tough. Its not that I don’t want to attempt to write record reviews, or push my opinions, beliefs, and stories on you. I’ve just been busy. You’ll read about this in the Durango Herald next week, but you see, we’re building a new radio station. If moving a station isn’t hard enough, the building of three new studios, one being on-air the other being interview/production, is a lot more than plugging in some CD players and a few microphones and calling it good. It’s fucking hard, it takes a lot of planning, and a lot of labor. So there…..
many apologies for slacking. work, and the writing that pays me, often gets in the way of coffeesick ramblings. forgive me, and be assured that i’ll review something soon. so much new stuff. slim cessna, mike watt, j mascis, among many, many others….
I’ve decided to attempt to review music on a weekly basis. Anything to keep myself listening to new things and attempting to write, which apparently is a good cure for ganglian cysts. Apparently. I’m no expert, i’m no professional, i’m just someone that knows how to type, and listens to things that are somewhat interesting.
